UCC annual distribution of prizes

On Thursday, October 10, UCC hosted the annual distribution of prizes in Laidlaw Hall. A wonderful address by the Chair of the English Department, Ms. Gillian Levene set the stage for students coming forward to accept their prizes. The Boarding community was well represented during the ceremony. While I wasn’t able to capture photos of every boarding prize winner, what follows is the full list of boarders who won a prize for their efforts in the previous school year. The list of potential peer tutors for new and veteran students became quite clear today.
